Life is usually ordinary. There isn’t all that much romance or adventure. In our busy or financially strained days, we often forget the person we once were, full of dreams and hopes for the future. This is especially true for married people, who face all kinds of helplessness and heartache.
This story is about an ordinary woman whose married life brought her nothing but pain. She was bullied and ostracized, suffered countless indignities, and ended up sick. Then the man listed as her husband on her household register dealt her the most repulsive blow of all. But she refused to give in or give up on life. Through her own efforts, she built a better life and met a good man worthy of spending the rest of her life with.
There are no exaggerated fantasies of happiness here, nor any outlandish writing. I only hope that everyone struggling in life’s mire can enjoy better days in the years ahead and be treated with kindness.
Extraordinary ordinary life, told with heart
